AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Roxane changed her clothes, took out her bag and phone and was about to go out.

When she reached the stairs, she suddenly thought of something and turned around to go to Enzo’s room.

Enzo was hot-tempered and liked to fight, so he had collected a lot of things he needed to fight.

Roxane opened her drawer but found nothing. She then opened the bottom cabinet and saw a black stick.

She held it in her hand to measure its weight, then tried to shake it.

Enzo had already taught her how to swing a stick, so she was no stranger.

She put the stick away and put it in her bag. This time she really came down.

When she headed towards the door, she met Sabrina and Joel, who had just returned.

– It’s raining outside, where are you going? Sabrina asked worriedly.

Roxane didn’t want them to worry, so she tried her best to smile.

– I just remembered that I haven’t finished one of my paintings. I have to go back and finish it.

Sabrina was worried about returning in such heavy rain.

– Are you in a hurry? Can’t we wait until the rain stops before we go again?NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

– I have a little inspiration now.

She held his arm and said in a sweet and flirtatious voice:

– I will be very careful.

– If the child wants to go back, let her go again. Be careful.

Joel looked at his wife.

Sabrina sighed.

– OK, then drive carefully.

Roxane nodded.

– I know! Goodbye, mom and dad.

She raised the umbrella and went out. The online taxi she booked had already arrived at the door.

Sabrina watched his figure get into the car, then glanced at her husband.

-Why didn’t you let him stay earlier? It’s not safe if it’s raining that hard outside.

Joel’s mouth twitched.

– You are a woman. Can’t you tell that Roxane doesn’t want to go back and paint!

“So why is she in such a hurry to get home?” Sabrina still hasn’t reacted.

– They are newlyweds and stuck together like glue. Why do you think she’s in a hurry to get home? Joel’s eyes twinkled with a touch of disdain. You’re not even as sensitive as a man like Me!

Sabrina pinched his arm.

– What are you saying?

Joel sucked in a cold breath, immediately smiled and begged for mercy,

– Please spare my life, Madam! Please spare my life!

-Hmph!

Sabrina looked at him and thought of her daughter’s thoughts. She shook her head with a smile.

– It’s true that an adult daughter cannot be kept at home. They’ve only been separated for half a day and she can’t stand it…

-How could you say that about your daughter? Don’t you also…

Sabrina turned her head to look at him.

He immediately shut up.

***

Roxane called Jonas after getting in the car.

The call went through and Jonas’ uncertain voice came from the other end of the phone.

– Roxane… Alvarez?

After what happened last time, he had sent messages to Roxane, but she didn’t answer or take his calls.

He thought she was angry and wouldn’t talk to him anymore.

– It’s me!

Roxane pursed her dry lips.

-Are you in M City now?

“I’m here,” Jonas replied immediately, a trace of happiness hidden in his deep voice.

– Do you want to come to the gallery to find me?

Roxane did not answer but asked:

– Is your mother also in M City?

– My mother? My mother went to pick you up again? Jonas was stunned and perplexed.

It is not possible!

During the new year, she had clearly promised him that she would not cause trouble for Roxane.

– Jonas, I beg you…

Roxane tightened her grip on the phone and looked at the heavy rain outside. His voice was solemn.

– Tell me where your mother is now.

On the other end of the line, Jonas was silent for a moment. His voice was low.

– Wait for me. I’ll call you back.

“Okay,” she said.

Roxane hung up the phone.

The driver glanced in the rearview mirror and asked:

-Mademoiselle, where are you going?

– Uncle driver, drive to town first.

“Oh,” replied the driver. Either way, she just had to pay for the fare.

The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, as if it was going to destroy the entire city.

The raindrops hitting the car window seemed to touch Roxane’s heart drop by drop. A huge feeling of uneasiness and anxiety spread in his heart.

Every minute and every second passed like a long century.

His phone suddenly vibrated. Before it rang, Roxane immediately picked up the phone.

– Good morning …

– My mother is at the MS hotel in town.

Jonas’ voice could be heard on the other side of the phone.

“Thank you,” she said.

Before she could hang up the phone, she hurriedly said to the driver:

– Go to the MS hotel.

On the other end of the line, Jonas could vaguely hear him telling the driver to go to the MS Hotel.

What was she doing there? Was she going to find her mother?

What had happened?

Jonas was worried. He didn’t even close the gallery door and left in a hurry with his car keys.
